It depends on the strength of the stimulus. A threshold voltage has to be reached before the nerve can be stimulated.
Any stimulus below the neuron's threshold potential will not result in a response, as it is not strong enough to generate an action potential. Neurons require a minimum level of stimulus intensity to reach the threshold potential and fire an action potential.
A subthreshold stimulus is one that does not generate a strong enough signal to elicit a perceptible contraction in muscle fibers. It is below the threshold required to cause an action potential and result in muscle contraction.
During the absolute refractory period, the neuron is incapable of generating another action potential regardless of the stimulus intensity, as the voltage-gated sodium channels are inactivated. Once these channels have reset during the relative refractory period, a strong enough stimulus can trigger an action potential again.
The minimum level of stimulation required to trigger a neural impulse is known as the "threshold." This threshold is the minimum amount of neurotransmitter release or electrical stimulation needed to generate an action potential in a neuron. Below this threshold, the neuron will not fire an action potential.
The nerve impulse (action potential) either occurs, or it doesn't, depending on whether or not a sufficient summation of inputs from dendrites at the axon hillock (the trigger point) has occurred, either temporally or spatially.That is, if a large enough number of dendrites have received inputs from other neurons such that their total contribution of electrotonic impulses to the axon hillock results in enough Na ions there to trigger the action potential, or, if one or more dendrites is/are stimulated so often or quickly that, again, there are enough Na ions pushed to the axon hillock to trigger the action potential, then the nerve will "fire". If not enough Na ions are caused to congregate at the axon hillock by either means, then the action potential will not occur, and there will be no transmission of a nerve impulse.

The all-or-none principle in physiology states that once a nerve impulse reaches a certain threshold, a neuron will fire at its maximum potential. If the stimulus is strong enough to trigger an action potential, the response will occur at full strength. If the stimulus is below the threshold, no response will be triggered.
The phase between the stimulus of a muscle and the shortening of the muscle is called the latent phase or latent period. During this phase, the muscle is receiving the signal to contract, but actual muscle shortening has not yet occurred. This period is important for the muscle fibers to prepare and generate enough force for contraction.
I need to generate enough energy to finish my homework.
The ammo does not generate enough gas to operate the action.
as the resistance/impedance of the the conducting wire is so small as compared to the load, there is a very low voltage drop across the conducting wires. keep the Ohm's law in mind i.e. V=IR <><><> Agree- but making the conducting wires LONG enough, and there will be enough resistance for a voltage drop.
The transmission between neurons depends on the number of neurotransmitters that are present. If there aren't enough transmitters, the impulse is not passed into the second neuron, meaning it's cut down. If there are enough, it leads to an action potential (nerve impulse) in the second neuron. The nerve system is a rather confusing, and very technical, system in the body.
no. Stimulus payments are not taxable. However there are situations where you might not of gotten enough of a stimulus payment. Therefore you would be qualified for a "Rebate Recovery Credit" with your 08 tax return. Therefore give your tax preparer how much you got for a stimulus payment. You can also find the exact amount at IRS.GOV
